It comes after the former president skipped the first two televised debates.
Donald Trump’s campaign is calling on the Republican National Committee to cancel all remaining presidential primary debates, saying the party must “refocus its manpower” on defeating Joe Biden next year.
In their statement, senior campaign advisers Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita say the November debate in Miami and all future debates should be cancelled. He is in court this week in New York for a civil fraud trial accusing him of inflating the value of his businesses, a case he has argued is politically motivated.
RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel declined to answer a question last week about Mr Trump’s call to end the debates during a call with reporters on the launch of the committee’s Bank Your Vote initiative in New York. “I think we have to take those fights on, but also understand that once it gets to game day, the rules that are on the field are what we need to play by and President Trump is all in on that,” she said.
